It is hard to believe you picked up power from that.
I took the tubes out of the TB to clean it up and not have unused stuff hanging around.
Other than that I did it the same way you did.
Yeh, I thought the TB would have lines running in it also, I guess it just head soaks to keep the ice off..

The dyno graph is not mine, I pulled it from another thread here someone posted up..

I need to pull my TB off next week while I am home to polish it a lil' more, I am probably going to twist out the coolant inlets.. Are they just threaded into the TB?

No it looks like they're pushed in and held with red loctite or something similiar. Easy to twist and pull out.

I bought some parts in "bulk" when I bought mine, thought I could unload a few here for the guys who didn't wanna go to the shop..

I'll sell them for like $8 shipped.. I think I could make up 4 or 5 kits..
